Chapter 865 The Most Powerless Time

When Mikayla found out about the rumor, it had already reached Camdyn's ears. This really angered Camdyn, who was just one step away from taking his cane and going after the person responsible. Aimee and Patrick were also very annoyed by this.

Although they weren't sure how things had escalated to this point, one thing was certain: whoever spread this rumor did it targeting Aimee.

Aimee didn't really want to pay attention to it, especially since Ash had already exploded and said he would handle it. Aimee didn't interfere because she knew that with Ash's personality, he wouldn't let the rumor-monger off lightly.

What Aimee was more concerned about was something else entirely. She and Patrick had been married for so long now and even had two children together. Why would someone resort to such low tactics? It really left her speechless.

A rare moment of agitation overtook Aimee as she demanded an explanation from Patrick. But Patrick couldn't help but laugh at the situation because they'd never experienced anything like this before.

In fact, Aimee wanted to tell Patrick that if he couldn't give her a satisfactory answer, then she would take their children back home with her parents.

However, she suddenly realized that she didn't have any family left anymore, which made her feel sad all of a sudden.

She had never cared about these before, and now she didn't know why. Maybe it was because she became a mother, ans she became more sensitive and more emotional.

Patrick noticed something wasn't right with Aimee's mood so he walked over to hug her gently while asking softly, "What's wrong? Did you think of something?"

Shaking her head slightly, Aimee replied, "I just suddenly felt grateful that I have you."

Without Patrick in her life, there wouldn't be anyone else for whom she could call "home". That thought alone made everything seem too pitiful for words.

Patrick understood what his wife meant immediately, holding onto her tighter than before while kissing the top of her head lovingly as he whispered, "I'll always be by your side."

No matter how much their world changed or their children grew up and left them behind - none of those things mattered as long as they were together forevermore until death did them part - whereupon even then will still protect each other till eternity ends.

Aimee pressed her cheek against Patrick's chest, listening to his strong and steady heartbeat, which caused her eyes to blur uncontrollably. How lucky she was to be his wife. Aimee lifted her head and looked at Patrick, saying, "Pat, I really love you."

Aimee wasn't the type of woman who would say such things out loud. Most of the time, she believed that actions spoke louder than words. But at this moment, she really wanted to tell Patrick how much she loved him.

Patrick knew that it wasn't easy for Aimee to express herself so directly. They never took these kinds of words too seriously before. But when he heard Aimee say them now, it felt like something had grabbed hold of his heart tightly and caused him pain.

Holding Aimee tightly in his arms, Patrick gently stroked her back but also seemed like he was looking for a way out or something else he could do.

However, just as Patrick leaned down to kiss Aimee's lips softly on hers, there was a knock on the door.

Originally, he didn't intend to pay attention but hearing Riley's anxious voice coming through the door, "Patrick! Aimee! Camdyn fell down from the stairs!"

Riley's words made both Patrick and Aimee immediately separate from each other with tense expressions on their faces.

Both rushed out of the room, asking anxiously, "Riley, what happened? How did Grandpa fall down?"

Camdyn falling downstairs was no small matter. If not taken care properly, it can lead serious issues because old age made it difficult for one's body condition unpredictable sometimes.

Riley said, "I'm not sure exactly what happened either but I saw Camdyn come down from upstairs in a rage as if he wanted to fight someone."

Even after falling onto the ground, Camdyn still didn't care about himself being hurt. Instead, he kept trying hard and wanting go outside, which only worsened his injuries further more by moving around recklessly

Riley worriedly added that thankfully there was a doctor in their house who could treat Grandpa's injuries. Without thinking twice, Riley rushed over here straight away looking for help from Aimee.

At this moment, Aimee had already run over beside Camdyn whose younger days were tough enough where even getting shot wouldn't make him flinch, let alone making any noise or fuss about anything happening right now.

After checking up on Camdyn, Aimee realized that things weren't looking good at all. However, she didn't reveal the situation to Camdyn yet. Instead, she asked Riley to bring a board and prepared to move Camdyn to the house where Patrick used to live.

The equipment was still there, and Aimee had arranged for Camdyn's surgery.

Patrick had already called Kelvin who was Aimee's most capable assistant and they needed him for this emergency surgery.

When Kelvin returned, he brought with him all the necessary tools and medications that Aimee required. Without any delay, after explaining the situation to Kelvin, they turned the room into an operating theatre Outside of the room, people started arriving one by one. Casey was crying uncontrollably. Their parents had died in an accident when they were young so they grew up with their grandparents. However, their grandmother passed away early due to illness.

Now if something happened to their grandfather, Casey couldn't even bear thinking about it anymore as she leaned on Patrick's chest, trying not make too much noise while tears kept streaming down her face. Patrick held her tightly. His mood was heavier than ever before. Even when he himself got into an accident before, it wasn't this heavy on his heart but he trusted Aimee completely - believing that grandpa would be okay because of her expertise.

However, Patrick knew very well that grandpa was getting older now and things weren't as simple as before anymore. He also needed prepare himself for worst-case scenarios but how could he accept it? After thirteen hours of surgery, they finally came out from inside of the room. Aimee and Kelvin had cleared everything up nicely so that Camdyn could rest without being moved around too much. It had been a long time since Aimee did such a long operation like this one, so when she came out from inside of the room, her vision blurred momentarily, causing her almost fall if not for quickly holding onto wall support.

Patrick rushed over immediately, hugging her tightly and feeling extremely worried about what happened during those 13 hours in there.

Aimee regained composure, calmingly reassuring him, "Pat, I'm fine. Don't worry."

Patrick's eyes turned red. He knew what should be done next was letting Aimee rest but at same time worrying about Grandpa's condition more than anything else right now.

Except for Aimee, who can give him enough peace of mind, no one else can achieve this.

Aimee knew that everyone was waiting for her to tell everyone how grandpa was doing now.

She adjusted her breathing, and said without any concealment, "The situation is very bad. After Grandpa fell down, he moved by himself, and the broken bone pierced his spleen, causing the spleen to rupture. In addition, his coccyx nerve was also injured, and Kelvin and I tried our best to repair it. However, the situation of grandpa is very different from Pat's at that time. In addition, he i getting older, and his ability to regenerate is much weaker than Pat's. The effect of the treatment is not significant. We all have to be mentally prepared. Perhaps, grandpa may never stand up again."

When Aimee narrated these words from a doctor's point of view, it will make people feel that she was extremely indifferent, and she said this matter so plainly and cruelly.

However, seeing that Aimee's eyes were all red, one knew that she was actually very sad.

She was a doctor, even a genius doctor.

However, even a genius doctor was helpless sometimes. Aimee at this moment was when she was most powerless.

She didn't even know what she had to do to cure Camdyn.

After Aimee finished speaking, she suppressed the emotions in her heart and said, "Kelvin and I will take turns to watch over Grandpa during this time. He has to rest for the time being. You all go about your own business first. When Grandpa wakes up, come and see him."
